Abstract
A composition comprising a first ethylene polymer having a density in the range of between about 0.940 and about 0.960; a second ethylene polymer having a melt index of at least about 20; and an organic peroxide is disclosed. An electrical conduit which includes an electrical conductor and an electrical conductor covering, the covering comprising the above-described composition of the present invention is also set forth. In addition, a process for producing the electrical conduit of the present invention is described. In this process an electrical conductor, i.e., a wire or a cable, is coated with a molten extrudate of the polymeric composition of the present invention.
